Egypt's Supreme Court has ruled part of an election law unconstitutional, possibly delaying parliamentary polls which begin this month.
The ruling referred to sections of the law on division of electoral districts.
Egypt has been without its main parliament chamber since 2012 when it was dissolved by a court ruling.
The elections are the final step of a transitional roadmap outlined by the military in July 2013 after the overthrow of President Mohammed Morsi.
They are scheduled to be held several stages, starting 22-23 March.
Former army chief Abdul Fattah al-Sisi was elected president in May 2014.
Mr Sisi approved a constituencies law in December creating 567 parliamentary seats, 420 of which would be contested by individual candidates, 120 allocated according to party lists and 27 assigned by the president.
His supporters are expected to dominate the new chamber.
But lawyers who appealed against the law told AFP news agency that in its current form it did not adequately represent the electorate.
The first two steps of the roadmap were the adoption of a new constitution in January 2014 and Mr Sisi's election.
